Prevent Zotero from Adding Content to a Reference Field Intentionally Left Blank

cosilyn_lacey
Is it possible to prevent Zotero from adding "Anon" (as in the incorrectly formatted example below) to the beginning of the reference when the Author field is blank? My references are based on the Journal of the American College of Cardiology citation format, which does not insert "Anon" at the beginning of the bibliography reference if the citation’s Author field is blank.

    This is all handled in the specific citation style. We'd want a complete list of issues with a pointer to where you source the correct format from in a single post. This looks like an error to me, but e.g. I think you may be wrong about your other reported issue. JACC includes a period after a URL in their example:
    Online media.
    Provide specific URL address and date information was
    accessed. EXAMPLE: “10. Henkel J. Testicular Cancer: Survival High With
    Early Treatment. FDA Consumer magazine [serial online]. January-
    February 1996. Accessed August 31, 1998. http://www.fda.gov/fdac/fea-
